jnik, as a sub I was recently asked to supervise a game of Charades for a theater class….The teacher asked the students to submit the names of books, movies, famous people, etc. for topics…..Big Mistake……There were a baker’s dozen of suggestions to illustrate twerking….Ah, Middle school…..Walk carefully or you’ll slip on the hormones in the hallway….

unless your local high school blackmails the community to finance a new stadium. the same local high school whose football program is sacred, their players are “saints,” and will protect those kids even if they are caught doing something illegal(drugs, test taking, grade fixing, etc….).

There are no set rules, although many would like to impose their own preferences, on the use of the first-person plural pronoun when speaking of sports teams. For my part, it sounds silly to speak of professional sports teams as “we”. High school teams? Sure, why not? The players are your classmates, your friends, maybe. Same thing with college. You chose to join that college community. You wanna call yourself part of the team? The coaches, athletic director, band, cheerleaders, dance squad, and players will welcome you and your support.

One of the sad parts about this is that they’re ruining those kids by letting them get away with stuff. At some point, people need to take responsibility for themselves. If they haven’t learned it by high school, they need to.

The native intelligence of the coach is will be a huge factor in how well a high school football team does. But a school will not be able to get along with a strong-minded, smart coach. Our local team had an ex-college coach with heart problems for a short, successful time.

About Frazz

Frazz by Jef Mallett follows the adventures of an unexpected role model: an elementary-school janitor who's also a Renaissance man. While he's sweeping the hall, he's whistling Beethoven. Or Lyle Lovett. He paints the woodwork in the classrooms; he paints a Da Vinci on the cafeteria wall. He's a trusted authority figure who is every kid's buddy. He took the janitor's job while he was a struggling songwriter, and when he finally sold a hit song, he decided to stay on at school. Frazz appears in 200 newspapers worldwide, including the Los Angeles Times, Seattle Times, Chicago Tribune and Detroit News. "A few years back, I wrote and illustrated a children's book," says Mallett. "When I was traveling around reading it at school assemblies, I noticed that often, the most respected, best-liked grown-up in the building was the janitor. And I thought, 'Hmm, there's a comic strip in that.'" Often praised for its intelligent wit, gentle spirit and effortless diversity, Frazz won a Wilbur Award from the Religion Communicators Council in 2003 and 2005 for excellence in communicating values and ethics.
